Disassembly of hemidesmosomes promotes tumorigenesis in PTEN-negative prostate cancer by targeting plectin into focal adhesions
2021-11-08
Abstract excerpt
Loss of α6β4-dependent hemidesmosomes has been observed during prostate cancer progression. However, the significance and underlying mechanisms by which aberrant hemidesmosome assembly may modulate tumorigenesis remain elusive. Using an extensive CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genetic engineering approaches in different prostate cancer cell lines combined with in vivo tumorigenesis studies in mice, bone marrow-on-chip assa...
